Of course it isn't equal. It is, however, dependent upon the size. Try
running a 60" ZTR mower with either a battery or electrical cord.
Electric mowers are just the thing for a table top "city" lawn. When
you start keeping acres manicured. . . not so much.

No, a cord is a piece of string, something like you'd pull a blind down with to keep the sun out of your window. Actually, we mostly just say "an extension", the context makes it obvious it's for electricity. Dunno why some people say lead - normally the wire is called a wire or a flex.

There is reinforcing in an electrical extension...that's why it's called a
cord. You didn't even mention a lead for a dog...maybe you have no opinion?
Fat chance of that!

I've stripped plenty. Here, inform yourself:

That's the stuff used for appliances and for extensions. In fact everything other than wires inside walls.

Wow, you are an idiot! Do you think a company selling wire is going to show the reinforcing material for a catalog? Maybe you have lower standards where you're at, but this would be an actual extension cord: http://tinyurl.com/h922l9n

and that's what it looks like when you strip it to replace the plug.

Another ignorant question, I'm using a double-insulated tool. And your cord
s are truly lacking in quality and safety. I'm fairly sure I stripped simil
ar cord from Canada and it had fiber strengthening in it. It was used on a
Carroll hospital bed. Obviously, you fellas accept less!
